Los Angelenos
All come from somewhere
To live in sunshine
Their funky exile
Midwestern ladies
High-heeled and faded
Driving sleek new sports cars
With their New York cowboys
Hiding up in the mountains
Laying low in the canyons
Going nowhere on the streets
With the Spanish names
Making love with the natives
In their Hollywood places
Making up for all the time gone by
Los Angelenos
All come from somewhere
’cause it’s all so easy
To become acquainted
Electric babies
Blue-jeaned and jaded
Such hot sweet schoolgirls
So educated
Tanning out in the beaches
With their Mexican reefers
No one ever has to feel
Like a refugee
Going into garages
For exotic massages
Making up for all the time gone by
Hiding up in the mountains
Laying low in the canyons
Going nowhere on the streets
With the Spanish names
Making love with the natives
In their Hollywood places
Making up for all the time gone by
Los Angelenos
All come from somewhere
It’s so familiar
Their foreign facesfrom What You Whispered
..............................................
by David Wilcox/Beth Nielsen Chapman
In the tears you gave to me
I found a river to an ocean
A concrete sky and a stone cold sea
That came to where the emptiness cracked open
And all my fears came crashing through
And met the fire of my sorrow
But I found my strength in forgiving you
I never even dreamed how far my heart could go
To give my life beyond each death
From this deeper well of trust
To know that when there's nothing left
You will always have what you gave to love
In this life, the love you give becomes the only lasting treasure
And what you lose will be what you win
A well that echoes down too deep to measure
A silver coin rings down that well
You could never spend too much, a diamond echoes deeper still
And you'll always have what you gave to love,
You will always have what you gave to love
